Slip and thermal effects on MHD fractional Jeffrey nanofluid flow

Nanofluids with superior thermal characteristics are increasingly important in radiation-influenced environments across industrial and biomedical domains. This work develops a fractional-order model describing the mixed convection flow of human blood-based nanofluids embedded with single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) along an infinite vertical surface. To capture memory and hereditary effects, the constant proportional Caputo (CPC) operator is utilized, while the Laplace technique yields semi-analytical solutions for temperature, velocity, and concentration profiles, and its inverse Laplace transform is obtained using the Stehfest and Tzou algorithm. The results show that thermal radiation significantly enhances heat transfer, with a 12 % increase in temperature for blood-SWCNT nanofluid due to superior thermal conductivity, while blood-MWCNT nanofluid exhibits higher velocity due to lower density. These findings contribute to the development and optimization of nanofluid systems for use in industrial engineering applications, including high-performance heat exchangers, solar collectors, electronic cooling systems, and biomedical thermal therapies where precise thermal diffusion control over is essential.
